The PL-LAB2020 node at National Institute of Telecommunications (NIT) is located in NIT’s headquarters in Miedzeszyn, Warsaw. The PL-LAB2020 node at NIT enables carrying out an experimental research related with the following topics: Network Virtualisation, Software Defined Networking, Internet of Things, Wireless networks and Network Management.

Software Defined Networks Lab

The laboratory is equipped with three types of devices:

4x HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 with DPDK (multi-processor DPDK servers on which SDN/Open Flow controllers can be installed or e.g. open software for SDN switches, e.g. Open vSwitch)

Wireless Lab

The main goal of the laboratory is to extend other laboratories with wireless access scenarios. The laboratory contains a set of wireless access points (Netgear R6300) and wireless terminals (tablets with Android and iOS operating systems). The laboratory offers also the following tools for monitoring the ISM 2.4 and 5 GHz bands:

Metageek Wi-Spy DBx

Metageek Wi-Spy Device Finder antenna

Riverbed AirPcap

You can use them in place or rent them.

Management Lab

The laboratory offers:

5x HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 running as virtualization servers

2x HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9 with DPDK (multi-processor DPDK servers on which SDN/Open Flow controllers can be installed or e.g. open software for SDN switches as Open vSwitch)
